August 2017[edit]

Hello, I'm Sarah Canbel. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Dabke have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Sarah Canbel (talk) 22:27, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sarah Canbel: In the history section of the article, it is mentioned that Canaanites/Phoenicians are the first people who performed such kind of dancing, so how in earth is that related to Arabs from the Arabian peninsula ?! The first mentioning of Arabs were in the Battle of Qarqar in a distinct depiction compared to the Aramean states ! if the dance is originated in Syria (region), that means it has nothing to do with Arabs. People in that region speak Arabic nowadays but they are not Arabs, the same for Copts, Nubians, Somalis and Amazigh ! I dont care about any fake news links or references which relate Arameans to Arabs by any mean, such allegations are as fake as Zecharia Sitchin writings, claiming Sumerians were aliens ! I dont want to enter in an edit conflict with you, so I kindly recommend to restore my edits, and it is a honor to meet you ! Oriental Sword (talk) 22:58, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Dabke. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Sarah Canbel (talk) 20:51, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please remember to use an wp:Edit summary! You can set it in your preferences (I have it thus) to not allow you to save w/o one. It's annoying... Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 07:31, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Jim1138: I rechecked my edits ! I did not blank anything ! Then you come here to threaten me of blocking "without further warning" even though you are not an admin ! How sad ! Oriental Sword (talk) 14:12, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My apology. I removed my warning. I would strongly recommend leaving an ES so that this sort of thing doesn't happen. It appears that I am not the only one here who misunderstood your edits. A simple "reordered" for that edit would have sufficed. I am a wp:recent changes patroller, view hundreds of edits an hour, and ES save me and others time trying to fathom the reasoning behind edits.

Nur al-Din Kahala[edit]

Hi there. I was wondering what your source was for this edit, as all additions to Wikipedia require the inclusion of a reliable source, and thus I would like to add one to the article. Canadian Paul 00:19, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Canadian Paul: To be honest, these people here know Kahala personally. But I could not include the link for the obvious reasons !

Therefore, do what you think is right mate. cheers ! Oriental Sword (talk) 06:32, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

August 2017[edit]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Reece Oxford. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:37, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Mattythewhite: Check transfermarkt ! I can tell that it is a reliable source ! Oriental Sword (talk) 18:41, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Mattythewhite: Can I retain my edits back ? Oriental Sword (talk) 18:44, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Transfermarkt is not a reliable source, and the burden lies on you, as the editor who added the content, to provide references. Mattythewhite (talk) 18:52, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
